Mercedes SLK200K
I found Engine Carbon Clean on facebook and, to be honest, there were mixed reviews. Not one to trust those reviews, I did a fair amount of research - after all, this is my car and I want the best. I wasn't getting the MPG I was expecting, it was running a little lumpy, and launching from a standstill wasn't quite what it should be. The car had done 70000+ miles and it was in need of some TLC. Having done the research, I found that Adrian was genuine about what could, and could not, be improved with a carbon clean - unlike others that seemed to promise the earth (which obviously wasn't the truth!). Adrian was on time, very courteous, and fully explained everything that would happen and also why it would work. Not being particularly scientific, even I understood what was happening. I won't, however, try to explain it here - I'll leave that to Adrian when he comes to see you. The process took about 45 minutes - it's not the most exciting thing to watch, but Adrian is thoroughly professional and even half way through the process, my untrained ear could hear that the car running smoother than before just by the tone the engine was generating. By the time it was finished, the exhaust sounded much less lumpy and had a beautiful tone. A short spin afterwards, I could see and feel the improvement. I'll see what MPG is like after a week or so of my commute, but I'm sure it will be better than before. Well worth the money and I absolutely recommend Adrian - thanks chap, great job!

Audi S4
Adrian was fantastic from start to finish. I was unsure weather to have the work done on my car as it was a petrol, but Adrian explained what the process was and what it would do to my engine so I booked. A few weeks later a clean was carried out and the difference is fantastic smoother running engine with no rumble and better MPG but not massive amounts. Power delivery is more responsive too. Would highly recommend Adrian to anyone. He coming back soon to do his magic on our work fleet.

Marvellous Service
Had a carbon clean done on my vehicle, I am more than happy with the service. Adrian turned up on time, very prompt. He also explained the process very clearly in Layman's terms. Very professional and smartly dressed in uniform. He left me with no questions unanswered.

Perfect service on our Mondeo
Brilliant service on our Mondeo. As soon as Adrian cleaned our car it has run like brand new. He contacted us with an estimated time of arrival, confirmed it at a later stage and turned up exactly on time. He was very informative, explaining everything he was doing and why he was doing it througout the process. The job came to less price than was expected which is always nice! It was so good that even my elderly father in law noticed a difference. Would definitely recommend to others and will book Adrian again in the future.

Perfection.
I’ve had the pleasure of dealing with Adrian on two occasions now. His passion and knowledge of his trade is second to none. Great efforts were made to accommodate a time that was convenient for me as I had to drop my son off at nursery. Communication was spot on and Adrian was punctual on both visits. He explained the entire process and didn’t have any problems answering any of my questions. After reading your people’s reviews my expectations were high and I’m pleased to say we’re easily met and surpassed afterwards when the car felt many miles younger. Very happy with the service and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to family and friends.

Cannot believe the difference
Had both my Range Rover Sport and Porsche 911 engines cleaned by Adrian who explained the process thoroughly, good, honest explanation with no fancy promises. I did not know what to expect from having this done other than a faint hope that it may reduce emissions or make a slight improvement on performance. I could not have been more pleased with the results, both cars showing a markedly increased level of performance, smoother idling and acceleration, crisper through the gear changes and generally an all round better performance. I am hoping over the next few days/weeks that it also reflects on the mpg of which i am confident it will. I am sure there are a lot of people out there purporting to do the same thing, but this guy is the real deal, honest, no bull sh*t and no false promises, give ECCEM a try, you will not be disappointed!

Speedy booking process, very professional and highly recommended.
Almost 2 weeks since Adrian worked his magic on my Alfa 159, and it’s fair to say I’m happy with the results. Initial diagnostics on the car revealed that it was already running really well after 148,000 miles with no faults shown. After the clean, there was no miraculous power increase but then I wasn’t expecting that, given the engine was already in good order. It is much smoother though, quieter and more refined in power delivery, and on the long runs returning an increased MPG, almost 2 more than prior to the clean. It’s fair to say it drives just as it did when I bought it with only 1600 miles on the clock. Very impressed with the service, and a nice guy too. Looking forward to booking him again to see what he can do with the Mk4 Golf. Highly recommended.

Great Service!
Recently acquired a Land Rover discovery3 and contacted Adrian about a carbon clean and full diagnostics. He was very prompt in replying and got me booked in very quickly. The whole process was very professional and has made a big difference to the Land Rover. It now runs a lot smoother and is a lot more responsive when going up through the gears! Would definitely recommend! Thanks!

Incredible Service
I booked my car in with Adrian for a diagnostic and Carbon Clean due to an upcoming MOT and I was concerned especially due to the new MOT regulations. Adrian was most helpful and got me booked in within a matter of days, keeping me informed and up to date. Adrian arrived exactly on time and began work right away, it’s clear from talking with Adrian that he is very knowledgeable and passionate about his work. Adrian began by running a diagnostic on my vehicle taking the time to go through the results with me in a way that I could understand, taking the time to answer any questions I had. Adrian then began the carbon clean process and the results are just incredible, the vehicle no longer smokes under acceleration, the car adsolutely glides now and the engine is drastically quieter. All my worries with regards to the upcoming MOT have now gone, thanks to the amazing service and professionalism from Adrian. Thanks again!

Outstanding service, second to none!
Contacted Adrian about a PDF clean on my 2008 Seat Leon after it became too clogged to regenerate. Adrian's communication was second to none, contacting me via text, even when he was away on holiday for a few days. As soon as he was back, he fitted me in, diagnosing a turbo boost pressure sensor fault, as well as a dpf fault. He talked me through all of the diagnosed data, explaining clearly what it showed. He could have cleaned the dpf there and then and taken my money, but advised me to take it to a garage he recommended to have the turbo issue resolved first, so that the dpf didn't become clogged again, resulting in it need to be cleaned a second time. Once the car was at the garage, he then organised with them for an on site clean of the dpf, and I also had him do the engine at the same time. The result is a car that has never been so responsive. Can't thank him or recommend him highly enough. Will definitely be using myself again and have already recommended his services to friends.

Very knowledgeable, great customer service and a top job
Had Adrian round to have a look at my Mercedes CLC220 CDI as I noticed a drop in power and response and the engine was starting to get louder. He was a really nice guy, prompt and explained all diagnostics clearly, had a few fault codes which again were explained fully. End product was way better than I expected, smoother, quieter and drives so much better now, would recommend 100% and will be using again if the need arises.

Great service
After following carbon cleaning for over two years, originally thinking it was just a money making gimmick. We had Adrian over to run a carbon clean on our Audi S3 and my Ford Transit. He ran diagnostics on both vehicles before cleaning. The Transit came up with an idle fault. Within 10 minutes Adrian had emailed me the code with information on what it was and how to fix it. Its been 3 weeks since the clean. The Audi has lost its annoying boomy exhaust sound and has got its raspyness back. Checked the trip computer mpg has risen from 19mpg to 24mpg on town driving. Very happy with the service. Adrian was very helpfull, informative and certainly knows his engines.

Excellent Service
After following Engine Carbon Clean for a while now I decided to get Adrian out to our Skoda Octavia and BMW 330d. He was very knowledgeable and provided a great service. The results are fantastic with the BMW driving like a new car, no more smoke, better acceleration and much quieter. The results are just as good on the Skoda. Would recommend Adrian to anyone well worth the money.

Amazing work, car feels like new!
Adrian is a very knowledgeable chap and true professional! My Audi A3 has literally never run better than it now does. It's much quieter and smoother to drive yet when you put your foot down it really goes and the throttle feels more responsive generally. Next thing on the list is to fix the clutch and it will be running perfectly.

Brilliant job!
About 7 months ago I noticed that my Audi’s MPG was deteriorating. After several diagnostic tests, including at Audi, I was told they could find nothing wrong with my car. I knew this wasn’t the case as I was getting nearly 200 miles less than I should out of a tank of fuel! We tried numerous things to fix the issue and have spent goodness knows how much money on fuel and fixes. Well, Adrian came out this morning after managing to fit me in before I was due to drive to Yorkshire (a costly journey in my car!) He was really lovely and clearly knew his stuff. He only had to listen to the engine to know it was sooty. Afterwards, I took my car for a 35 mile round trip and averaged nearly 53 mpg- I was struggling to get near 40mpg previously! A fantastic improvement! Thank you so much for ending 7 months of stress and expense. If only I’d been told to do it sooner!

Astonished with the results. Should have had this done ages ago.
Adrian I really can't thank you enough. After diagnosing a fault with my DPF sensor then doing the clean my car has been totally transformed. It's a joy to drive now, the difference in power during normal driving and at motorway speeds is astonishing. Its much smoother and definitive quieter than before with the added bonus of using less fuel too. I couldn't fault Adrian's professionalism, he explained everything to me in detail and even took the time to do an on-board test drive diagnosis twice to make sure no more Dtc's appeared. I have already recommended your services to a few people and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to a few more. I will definitively be using your services again in the future my friend, thank you so much. Money well spent and worth every single penny ☺️

Great work and excellent customer service
Spent quite some time researching this and looking for a good, reputable company with good feedback. Was worth the time finding Adrian. I got an immediate response to my request with all my questions answered comprehensively. Adrian was on my doorstep exactly on time. As for the work done had a really interesting chat with Adrian while he was running diagnostics and performing the clean. The difference? Took it out as advised after and the change in the engine/turbo is amazing. Running smoother with less stress so the rattle at idle has gone, the turbo spools up quicker and I have better throttle response. Engine sounds superb and on a long run already experienced better MPG as I'm quite thrifty being a Yorkshireman. Customer service wise I even had a follow up text to see how it was running? Nobody does that, I've spent thousands in BMW motorsports specialists Graham Goode and other reputable garages and they took the money and that was it, hob done. In all great service, great product and great value. Cheers Adrian.

Fantastic Service
Had Adrian initially come out to perform a preventative carbon clean on my petrol 06 Rav-4. I was very impressed with how easy it was to book in, and again on the day i was given an exact time i could expect him. Dispite there being no apparent symptoms of carbon build up pre clean, power has been notably increased, the engine is much quieter and the car is much more enjoyable to drive. I have recommended Adrian to freinds and family, several of whom have now also tried the carbon clean on their own cars and again said how they were impressed not only with the quality of service, but the significant improvement following on from the clean in how their cars ran. 5/5 would absolutely recommend.

Great reliable service
Adrian visited my 08 Jaguar x-type 2.2 diesel this morning and I've just took It out for a drive and wow ! What a difference. Its so quiet now , not that it sounded too much like a tractor before but its remarkable how quieter it is now for a diesel . Power wise it responds much better than it ever has . It rarely smoked before but I'm sure it will show a difference in the next mot emission test . I'm well impressed . And as for Adrian , such a nice professional guy , it was like being with F1 red bull's christian Horner. This guy knows his stuff. Well worth the £99 and would recommend to anyone . Thanks again .
